Are charges due to trueCall?

Hi All,
I've had my trueCall several months now and love it.
I am attracting some unexpected call charges from my landline provider (BT) and wondered if it is anything to do with trueCall.
I have an arrangement whereby I dial a friend's Virgin mobile and it rings twice then I hang up without the call being answered or connected. They then call me back so I don't get charged for the call. There is no answerphone on the number and Virgin have checked the mobile set up and assured us no charges are incurred from their side. However I've discovered that BT are charging 22p each time I dial the number even though it is not connected or answered. It never goes beyond two rings. BT are adamant that the call is connected and has a duration of 2 seconds. Could this have something to do with dialling via trueCall?
Any info is much appreciated while I wait for trueCall to get back to me.

I don't see how the trueCall unit could be responsible for incurring a call charge if the phone at the other end does not complete the connection. It seems to me more likely there is a fault at the other end, but I can't imagine what - if the line was open you would get an engaged tone.

22p seems a bit steep for a 2 second call even if the other end does pick up!
